Straight Forward
I charge us to speak up and
really think
Are
we equally to blame in this social stink?
The crimes we see and never
report
Driven by fear of a corrupt
police force
The abuse of a child that we
ignore
The weaves we afford for
every occasion
Though our children are
deprived books for their education
The bank books that dry rot
while the gambling slips multiply
We are a society that has
come to believe its own lies
We have a role to play in
advancing our nation
Believe it or not we are
contributors to its degradation
Buy
Jamaica, Build Jamaica truly has a nice ring
Yet
we turn against our own products for made in China things
We
shun national pride and dream of a green card
But
as the saying goes “nuh weh nuh betta dan yaad”
The
allocation of government benefits seems to be abused
But
it is also likely that there is power play and misuse
The
mothers collecting path funds spent on expensive hairstyles
The
issue here isn’t always money, it is how we prioritize
The
fathers who boast of having so many seed
Do
you know how they are doing and if they can read?
The
mothers with so many fatherless children and cursing the M.P.
Remember
your kids are your responsibility
These are things we see but never say
We are all to be held accountable in every single way
For the sake of Jamaica, our beautiful land
Let us unite and take a stand
Halisha
Love
